Abstract in Portuguese
A diversidade da comunidade endofítica de fungos associada à cana-de-açúcar transgênica tolerante a imazapyr e suas linhas de cultivo não transgênicas foi avaliada por isolamento e ARDRA (Amplified rDNA Restriction Analysis). Cultivares transgênicos e não-transgênicos, e seu manejo (aplicação do herbicida ou remoção manual de daninhas), foram considerados para verificar o possível efeito indireto da cana-deaçúcar geneticamente modificada (GM) sobre a comunidade de fungos endofíticos. O total de quatorze haplótipos de ARDRA foram observados na comunidade endofítica de cana-de-açúcar. O seqüenciamento da região ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 revelou uma comunidade rica representada por doze famílias diferentes do filo Ascomicota. Alguns dos isolados demonstraram alta similaridade com gêneros que ocorrem comumente como endófitos em plantas de clima tropical, como Cladosporium, Eppicoccum, Fusarium, Guignardia, Pestalotiopsis e Xylaria. A análise de variância molecular (AMOVA) indicou que as flutuações observadas na composição dos haplótipos estão relacionadas tanto ao cultivar transgênico quanto a aplicação do herbicida. Enquanto a aplicação do herbicida induziu mudanças rápidas e transientes na comunidade de fungos, as plantas transgênicas induziram mudanças mais lentas que foram mantidas ao longo do tempo. Uma abordagem independente de cultivo baseada em bibliotecas de 18S ambiental revelou a presença de clones com seqüências similares a gêneros das famílias Ustilaginaceae e Filobasidiaceae, e das ordens Sporidiobolales e Tremellales, todos do filo Basidiomicota. Os resultados aqui demonstrados representam o primeiro relato sobre a composição de fungos endofíticos associados a plantas de cana-de-açúcar e também representam um passo importante para o entendimento dos efeitos que plantas transgênicas e seu manejo podem induzir sobre a comunidade de fungos endofíticos.

Abstract in English
The diversity of fungal endophytic community associated with transgenic imazapyr-tolerant sugarcane plants and its non-transgenic lines was evaluated by isolation and ARDRA (Amplified rDNA Restriction Analysis). Transgenic and nontransgenic cultivars and their crop management (herbicide application or manual weed control) were considered in order to assess the possible non-target effects of genetically modified (GM) sugarcane on the fungal endophytic community. A total of fourteen ARDRA haplotypes were observed in the endophytic community of sugarcane. ITS1- 5.8S-ITS2 sequencing revealed a rich community represented by twelve different families from the Ascomycota phylum. Some of the isolates showed a high sequence similarity with genera that commonly occur as endophytes in plants from tropical climates, such as Cladosporium, Eppicoccum, Fusarium, Guignardia, Pestalotiopsis and Xylaria. Analysis of Molecular Variance (AMOVA) indicated that fluctuations observed in haplotypes composition were related to both transgenic cultivar and herbicide application. While herbicide applications induced quickly transient changes in the fungal community, transgenic plants induced slower changes that were maintained over time. A cultivation-independent approach based on libraries of environmental 18S revealed the presence of clones with high sequence similarity with genera from Ustilaginaceae and Filobasidiaceae families and Sporidiobolales and Tremellales orders, all from Basidiomycota phylum. The results demonstrated here represent the first draft on the composition of fungal endophytes associated with sugarcane plants and also represent an important step to understand the effects that transgenic plants and their crop management may induce on fungal endophytic community.
